Palmetto Breeze passengers duke it out on public bus

A fight between two passengers on a Palmetto Breeze bus Tuesday morning left one man with minor injuries, according to a Bluffton Police Department report released Thursday.

The bus driver pulled over at the intersection of May River and Bruin roads in Bluffton when she heard "a loud commotion coming from the rear of the bus," according to the report. She saw two men fighting in her rear-view mirror and called police, the report said.

The men, a 48-year-old St. Helena Island man and a 25-year-old Yemassee man, gave police differing accounts of the altercation. Police noted that the St. Helena man was bleeding from the lip.

No charges were filed and both men declined to be seen by paramedics, according to the report.
